“Mindsets And Behaviors Must Be Changed.”

The future of work.

Let me scare you for a second. Here’s an article from UVA (Darden) about “becoming a hyper-learning community” (a good idea) and, well, check out this paragraph:

Digital transformations will require a new story about the purpose of an organization, the role of leaders and managers, and the role of human beings in accomplishing that purpose. The whole concept of managing others will have to change in order to produce the highest levels of human performance in concert with smart technology. Command/control and directing others will, in most cases, become obstacles to success. Hierarchy and silos will likewise be obstacles. Coercion, fear, ego, elitism, corporate politics, a zero-sum game mentality and internal competition all inhibit hyper-learning, and they must be eliminated. Mindsets and behaviors must be changed.
